We transferred last year in the 1st grade for my child and have loved the school and his teacher last year as well as his current teacher. Mrs. Bray is the principal and while we have only interacted with her at social events, she is great and really seems to be involved with the students. I hope the district as a whole improves because the schools are old and the kids could have a better learning environment although I believe Groveport Elementary is the oldest school and it is clean and well kept for the age of the building. The railings on the stairs scare me as a parent, they seem low to me for a three floor building but that is how they were designed in their day when kids rarely even went anywhere in schools without being lead by the teachers. I do wish Groveport Elementary offered the gifted classes so we didn't have to opt out of our child partaking in them (the gifted classes are offered at a school within the district that we prefer our child not attend). All in all Groveport Elementary is a great school, the teachers and the principal do a wonderful job making it a great day every day for the kids.

I'm going to tackle this as nicely as I can, but there isn't a lot of nice things to say. I am a current student at GMHS, class of 2026.. and I absolutely hate this school! I'm never excited to learn, because papers, google classroom assignments, random projects, and so much more are all shoved down my throat with no second thought! I am falling behind with my academics and I'm scared I won't graduate, but that doesn't matter to the staff team. Good luck trying to talk to the counselors, because you can't unless you book an appointment. And every single time I have went to book one, it's always over a week ahead. I tried booking one earlier this week (12/4/23) regarding my academics, and there's no openings until this upcoming Tuesday (12/12/23). And midterms are on the 12th and 13th, then after that it's the end of the grading period! Because of this school, I feel like my life is over. I feel as if I can't achieve what I want to in life. The staff are not encouraging me to push towards my dream of art, they just want me to sit down, shut up, and do their realistic 3d model cell project that's due in two days. (Yes, this actually happened.) Regarding the students, I have met some really nice people; But the majority is absolutely awful. There are fights almost every day, and if not every day, it's at LEAST once a week. They put Evolv weapons detectors in this year, and they're awful as well. They slow down the process of actually getting inside, and all the other students are pressed up against each other trying to get inside and away from the cold. Literally NO ONE likes them, NOT EVEN MOST OF THE STAFF! I hope they remove those buggy machines!

This school isn’t good at all choose any other school that’s not in groveport Madison they don’t help with work they go to fast while talking they are very disrespectful and they lied to my mom about my education and the help I need and sometimes the food is raw there is so many bad things about this school choose any other school and your kid will learn and get a better education
